| A well needed 'phew' to be exact. I finally got the school situation all sorted out and even though I was exhausted and hungry all day, nothing went wrong and I was finally able to chill out during my classes instead of gripping the edge of my desk in anxious uncertainty.
-Classes-
Figure Drawing I: Very difficult and very demanding. Almost everything I produce is utter shit until at the end of the class when we do the 'long pose' and I can finally take my time. Truckload of HW.
Painting I: I have no idea how to mix colors yet but I'm having a lot of fun! My brain cells are frying from the smell of the oil thinner.
Sculpture II: I had so much fun today I was grinning unvoluntarily. I was disappointed when class was over.
Political Science 100: This class is awesome. It is just lectures and tests. No essays, no HW, absolute heaven. Plus it's refreshing to be taught by someone who actually likes the country and is excited to teach about it's political system. I don't believe I've heard him say one arrogant or hateful thing.
Next Friday I'm getting evaluated for driving competence by a driving instructor. If he thinks I'm ready then I'll be trying for my driver's test soon. Yay. Five minute commute here I come.
FOUR DAY WEEKEEEENND. Get those faceups DONE. - Tags:life

| Lena moved in today! I missed her ; ; Her room is looking really nice! She said she saw a cute Indian boy neighbour who she thinks I should get together with. Lord, another year of her trying to hook me up with people. Hahaha!
We got our George stuff figured out, so that's good.
Tonight we want to go out for drinks and celebrate being of age and second years and the fact that we're back in Kingston and living together. I think we called Faraaz and Anton again, and we want to get Kelsey and Larraine in on this action.
Kelsey's been sleeping with a hammer next to her bed. Best weapon of choice ever. LOL | |

|  But I want more long-haired stoner Jon. Oh god, I love excess hair. Just like I love people who are bald, oh my god. Why'd you shave, Jon, why? There is nothing wrong with over-excessive hair. I really love them hairy, maybe a little chubby and happy, so also a plus: Frank's current Mario Brothers look. | |

| So, when was the last time I updated with someting interesting? .... *crickets* OKAY!
Lets start with a doll update, shall we then? About dolls that's still i my posession: Berlin (AiL Alice) was suposed to be sold and going to her new owner today, but she decided not to buy so I'm kinda stuck with her...again. She's kinda broken because I'm a stupid dofus, but now she's no longer Berlin. Honestly I have no fucking idea what to do with her *sob* I'm hoping I can at least use the body for Jamie if I sand off the breats. Then I have my girl Momo (MiniFee Woosoo) and an extra head, currently called Cassiopeia (MiniFee Seorin). I'm not sure she's gonna stay. She's only around because she used to be my little dead-from-illness girl, Eleni. Aaaaaand only two days ago I FINALLY (!!!!) got my Oskar (Soom Sard). OMFG he's wonderful <3 He might need some modding to make him more manly, but right now I'm just so glad he's here. About dolls that's on the way: I have a Napi Aesh head that (hopefully) will be a new Jamie, YAY! Aaaaand I have a secret MNF head on the way too. I'm not telling who she'll be, hee hee. Hopefully-not-to-far-out-in-the-future dolls: I'm gonna order Sofie (possibly AiL Chloe), Jenny Wren (SDF Annette) and a 70cm sneaky perv man called Emile (mold not decided, thinking Dollmore ModelDoll) when ever I get money enough. Jenny is my first priority since she's allready active in then storyline I have set up, so... And just so ya all know what I'm talking about, let's have some pictures! | |

| There is so much that went wrong with this week, that it would take me an hour just to type up half of it. But I suppose the biggest problem was my class getting cancelled and anything in the same topic was already filled. Hopefully everything will be sorted out by tomorrow and I can get my refunds and new class. Oy. I just want this to be over. On the bright side, I finished Eternal Sonata this evening. The ending battles were about as challenging as any other boss battles, so basically, a walk through the park. A good thing about this game is that leveling is easy and fun, and you can level yourself into a huge advantage over your opponents. ( quick review of Eternal Sonata ) | |

| The truck in question for "Route 15".  Been doing a lot of prelim work for this comic, including organizing and making god-knows-how-many-freaking-ps-brushes I have on my computer. After four years of neglect, I've pruned the links for my screentones page and updated my account on deviantart with a lot of stuff (mostly 600 DPI tone images). But I did upload some brushes/toys:   | |

| I put together this cosplay for Sena, but I've suddenly lost confidence in my Sena wig. It looks a lot better on the model head than it does on mine. ;_; BUT FORTUNATELY JUMONJI WEARS THE EXACT SAME THING, HUH? ( cut to spare your flists )So! Anyone from the Norhtwest? :O Anyone going to Kumori-Con or Sakura-Con? | |

| so last night i completely and utterly crashed. i went to take a "nap" at 7:30pm right after i got home from work and didn't wake up until 7:50am the next day. i completely didn't hear my alarm and i completely didn't eat my dinner! so by the time it was 11:40am, my stomach was eating my stomach....it's a cannibal. i find myself repeating "if only i *blank*-ed more, cuz then i'd be good at it" to everything...it makes me sad that the only thing i do in excess is complain, and that's not something anyone wants to be good at =( =( i want to make a gianteffin rubber stamp. becky cloonan made an awesome one to stamp on her stuff and it was too rad to not be compelled to make one myself...but i don't know what to put on it...totally has to be stamp worthy...but once i do know what to put on it, you better believe i'm going to be rubber stamping up a storm for 2 whole hours. TWO! http://www.beckermayer.com/jobs.html#job2hmm...seattle is not a tax-free oregon...but! it's still cheap and my 2nd choice! i don't think i'm ready for art director (if its a small enough company, sometimes i think i have a chance haha), but the freelance designer seems an interesting prospect... haha this lady is asking the same question as me portland or seattle? | |

| Emily invited Anton and Faraaz over for the evening. It was great to see both of them again! Except Faraaz tried to scare me when I opened the door for him. We had a ton of fun. Anton is always hilarious. We played Pokemon Monopoly and I kicked ass. I got all of the "utilities" equivalent (poke ball, master ball, ultra ball, and one other) so people were paying me 200 poke-dollars left, right and center. I felt kinda bad, but in Pokemon Monopoly you can use "Pokemon Powers" when you roll doubles, and one of them was to challenge another player for one of their properties (pokemon, pokeballs, etc.) so Faraaz and Anton each won a pokeball from me. Whatever, I still kicked ass. 8D I never do well at Monopoly, it was great.
Afterwards, we took a bathroom/snack break and decided not to resume the game because it was 1:00. We sat around and talked for a little more than a half hour. Anton showed us the sais he had in his car from his karate classes (he's brown belt). They were wrist-breakingly heavy. He taught me how to hold them defensively and then switch into offensive.
It was a fun night! Lena moves in tomorrow so it should be super fun. We also need to call George. He still needs to give us a washer and dryer, but Emily tells me it wasn't written into the lease so he can be a massive jerk and not give us something we've been paying for all summer.
Uhmmm okay, list for personal use. Stuff to ask George!
1. Fix the upstairs toilet because I failed to fix it
2. Give us a washer/dryer
3. Make copies of the 2nd front door's keys
4. Fix Emily's outlet
Oh! I'll probably share some photos from today when I steal them from Emily's camera. | |

| So! Yesterday was so fucking busy and horrible because we were shorthanded oh god! People were still flipping out about getting flashdrives and other stuff for school that it was really overwhelming and some people are dicks. :C THAT aside, the re-release of the special edition of the Nightmare Before Christmas was yesterday! I bought it because I only have the movie on VHS and I have no VCR anymore, so yes. Also, I'm a complete fag for special edition DVDS. Oh oh, and to show how horrible people are in terms of theft, we actually had to lock up our regular dvd sets of the movie. Why? Because as my department manager explained, last year, she special ordered 50 copies for Halloween season, had the store pay for shipping and everything, and in the end? In the end only 12 copies were officially sold, the rest were stolen. SO, we're treating it like a lock up item. Fucking people lol. Not that it bothers me, because that meant we didn't use the display stack-base that Disney sent us. ( SO THAT MEANT I TOOK PARTS OF IT )So yay. Today, I made new curtains, lazied about, and watched Metalocalypse. I'm so amazing, my life is thrilling, I'm sure. | |

| So on my one official day off I'm sitting at the cafe, soaking up their internetz, drinking tea and drawing. Plan on doing this most of the day then heading home to pack/clean/laundry. Yes I'm boring, but comics are fun. The End.
Manage to make a little money Monday. $80 closer to moving. Yes even little bits help, they add up in the end. | |

| Lesbian activist Del Martin, at the forefront of the battle for same-sex marriage in California, died Wednesday in San Francisco. She was 87. --- Very sad news - I've only been with L for 7 years, but it must be horrible losing such an important part of your life. And these women did so much for equal rights. read more | digg story | |

| I went to bed last night alone and woke up with a roommate! :D Emily's here, but she's currently out having lunch with her family. I had a game plan for today but I forgot most of it. This is why I need to buy a planner soon. I wonder if the bookstore is open. Anyway... TODAY'S GAME PLAN AS I REMEMBER IT: 1. Go to A&P, pick up some chili pepper2. Make scrambled eggs with the chili pepper3. Call Dad 4. Install webcam 5. Catch up with Emilyyy!! :D I would also like to share THIS PICTURE Neal emailed me. He said "You will laugh" and I did. [edit] So I went to get my chili pepper and then I decided to keep bumming around downtown for a bit, and I wandered into Indigo and bought You Suck by Christopher Moore and The Court of the Air by Stephen Hunt. As if I have any more room to spare on my bookshelf. However, they were like $8 each. I still haven't bought my textbooks. I don't know where I'm gonna put them! | |
